Main (Development/ Application) With timings Differentiation (Extension/Support) Activity 1: Pairs bowling Extend: Divide the class into pairs, with 1 ball per pair and 2 cones per child placed about a metre 10 mins • HA pupils can add run up immediately – apart, to create a target for their partner to bowl at. Children stand 10-15m apart and • Decrease distance between target cones to increase challenge practise bowling technique, introduced in the last lesson. Refresh technique points: release Support: at 12 o’clock, bowling grip, side on stance. • Increase distance between target cones Progress: Encourage children to walk in/run up as they bowl and combine with bowling action. Extend: Activity 2: Cone Explosion 15 mins • Increase the distance to the cones Divide the group into groups of 4, each with 10 cones scattered on the floor, approximately • Spread cones out so that there are bigger spaces between 10-15 steps away. Each group must bowl their ball towards their target cones, aiming to hit cones the cones. If they hit one, they can collect it and score a point. Support: • Decrease the distance to the cones Activity 3: Bowling Relay Arrange the class into groups of 4, with one ball per group and one set of stumps. One child Extend: • Use a hoop to add a target zone for children to bounce the ball from each group bowls at the stumps, aiming to hit them after one bounce. After each ball, 15 mins in before hitting the stumps the bowler runs out, collects the ball and passes to the next player in the group, who then Support: bowls. The group that hits the stumps within a certain time scores a point. - Decrease the distance to the stumps www.moving-matters.org Discuss LINE and LENGTH in bowling.

  • The Swing of a Cricket Ball
    SCIENCE BEHIND REVERSE SWING C.P.VINOD CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory Pune BACKGROUND INFORMATION • Swing bowling is a skill in cricket that bowlers use to get a batsmen out. • It involves bowling a ball in such a way that it curves or ‘swings’ in the air. • The process that causes this ball to swing can be explained through aerodynamics. Dynamics is the study of the cause of the motion and changes in motion Aerodynamics is a branch of Dynamics which studies the motion of air particularly when it interacts with a moving object There are basically four factors that govern swing of the cricket ball: Seam Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Speed Bowling Action Seam of cricket ball Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Cricket ball is made from a core of cork, which is layered with tightly wound string, and covered by a leather case with a slightly raised sewn seam Dimensions- Weight: 155.9 and 163.0 g 224 and 229 mm in circumference Speed Fast bowler between 130 to 160 KPH THE BOUNDARY LAYER • When a sphere travels through air, the air will be forced to negotiate a path around the ball • The Boundary Layer is defined as the small layer of air that is in contact with the surface of a projectile as it moves through the air • Initially the air that hits the front of the ball will stick to the ball and accelerate in order to obtain the balls velocity. • In doing so it applies pressure (Force) in the opposite direction to the balls velocity by NIII Law, this is known as a Drag Force.

  • Cricket Injuries
    CRICKET INJURIES Cricket can lead to injuries similar to those seen in other sports which involve running, throwing or being hit by a hard object. However, there are some injuries to look out for especially in cricket players. Low Back Injuries A pace bowler can develop a stress fracture in the back. This can develop in the area of the vertebra called the pars interarticularis (“pars”) in players aged 12- 21. Parsstress fractures are thought to be caused by repetitive hyper-extension and rotation of the spine that can occur in fast bowling. The most common site is at the level of the 5th lumbar vertebra (L5). Risk Factors Factors in bowling technique that are thought to increase the risk of getting a pars stress fracture are: • Posture of the shoulders and hips when the back foot hits the ground: completely side-on and semi-open bowling actions are the safest. A mixed action (hips side-on and shoulders front-on or vice versa) increases the risk of injury. Interestingly, recent research is suggesting the completely front-on action may be unsafe as rotation of the spine tends to occur in the action following back foot impact. Up until now, front-on was thought to be the safest. • Change in the alignment of the shoulders or of the hips during the delivery stride. • Extended front knee at front foot contact with the ground. • Higher ball release height. The other general risk factor for injuries in bowlers is high bowling workload: consecutive days bowling and high number of bowling sessions per week.

  • Bowling Performance Assessed with a Smart Cricket Ball: a Novel Way of Profiling Bowlers †
    Proceedings Bowling Performance Assessed with a Smart Cricket Ball: A Novel Way of Profiling Bowlers † Franz Konstantin Fuss 1,*, Batdelger Doljin 1 and René E. D. Ferdinands 2 1 Smart Products Engineering Program, Centre for Design Innovation, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne 3122, Australia; [email protected] 2 Department of Exercise and Sports Science, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Sydney, Sydney 2141, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-3-9214-6882 † Presented at the 13th conference of the International Sports Engineering Association, Online, 22–26 June 2020. Published: 15 June 2020 Abstract: Profiling of spin bowlers is currently based on the assessment of translational velocity and spin rate (angular velocity). If two spin bowlers impart the same spin rate on the ball, but bowler A generates more spin rate than bowler B, then bowler A has a higher chance to be drafted, although bowler B has the potential to achieve the same spin rate, if the losses are minimized (e.g., by optimizing the bowler’s kinematics through training). We used a smart cricket ball for determining the spin rate and torque imparted on the ball at a high sampling frequency. The ratio of peak torque to maximum spin rate times 100 was used for determining the ‘spin bowling potential’. A ratio of greater than 1 has more potential to improve the spin rate. The spin bowling potential ranged from 0.77 to 1.42. Comparatively, the bowling potential in fast bowlers ranged from 1.46 to 1.95. Keywords: cricket; smart cricket ball; profiling; performance; skill; spin rate; torque; bowling potential 1.

  • Surface EMG-Based Profiling and Fatigue Analysis of the Biceps Brachii Muscle of Cricket Bowlers
    Surface EMG-based Profiling and Fatigue Analysis of the Biceps Brachii Muscle of Cricket Bowlers Muhammad Usama Rizwan, Nadeem Ahmad Khan, Rushda Basir Ahmad and Muneeb Ijaz Department of Electrical Engineering, Lahore University of Management Sciences, Lahore, Pakistan Keywords: EMG, Mean Power Frequency, Fatigue Analysis, Cricket Bowling, Player Profile, Player Development. Abstract: Cricket bowling action is a complex repetitive task involving multiple muscles. In this paper we present a protocol to analyse accumulated localized fatigue in muscles during cricket bowling action. Biceps Brachii (BB) muscle in case of fast delivery for a novice player is analysed to illustrate the methodology. Synchronized video recording with the surface EMG signal was captured from the medial position of the BB muscle to enable segmentation of the EMG signal in six intervals corresponding to the six phases of the bowling action. This enables study of the activation pattern of the muscle along with the fatigue trend during bowling. Both integrated EMG and Mean Power frequency (MPF) are used as measures to analyse fatigue. Though we have plotted the trends for a single muscle, a similar exercise should be repeated for all important muscles involved. Analysing localized fatigue in individual muscles is important for injury prevention as well as player performance development. It can help to see how individual muscle fatigue contributes in declining performance during cricket bowling. Such an analysis can also be used to support minimum bowling overs and suitable inter-over breaks for a specific bowler with regard to injury prevention and optimal performance. 1 INTRODUCTION is a commercially available device for acquiring bio- potential data.

  • Intramural Sports Cricket Rules
    Intramural Sports Cricket Rules NC State University Recreation uses a modified version of the Laws of Cricket as established by the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC). The rules listed below represent the most important aspects of the game with which to be familiar. Rule I: Terminology Defined Bails – One of the (2) small pieces of wood that lie on top of the stumps to form the wicket Batsman – (2) batsmen are required to be on the field for the batting side at all times. If (2) batsmen cannot be fielded, the innings is declared over. One batsman is denoted the striking batsman while the other is declared the non-striking batsman. These titles will be shared between the (2) batsmen on the pitch, depending on which one is being bowled to currently and which is just running. a) Striking Batsman – The batsman that is facing the bowler and making contact with the ball. b) Non-Striking Batsman – The batsman that is on the same side of the pitch as the bowler and does not make contact with the ball. Bowler – The player on the fielding side who bowls to the batsman. Bowlers may only change fielding positions in between overs. No bowler may bowl more than (2) overs in an innings. Bowling Crease – The white line marked at each end of the pitch through the wicket and ending at the return creases. Destroyed Ball – A ball that has become unfit for play as declared by the umpires at any time during a match Chucking – An illegal bowling action which occurs when a bowler straightens the bowling arm when delivering the ball.

  • Factors Affecting Performance in Elite Finger Spin Bowling
    FACTORS AFFECTING PERFORMANCE IN ELITE FINGER SPIN BOWLING by Liam Sanders A Doctoral Thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy at Loughborough University April 2019 Abstract Factors affecting performance in elite finger spin bowlinG Liam Sanders, Loughborough University Full-body three-dimensional kinematics, passive joint range of motion and bowling parameters from match play were calculated to enable the analysis of elite finger spin bowling technique and delivery mechanics. Specifically, the effect of kinematic parameters and passive joint range of motion contributing to the production of spin were examined whilst ball trajectory parameters in international test match cricket were assessed and the extent to which these parameters may impact match performance. Kinematic and passive range of motion data were collected for a group of 23 elite finger spin bowlers, describing elements of finger spin bowling technique with the effect of these parameters on ball spin rate addressed using linear regression. Ball trajectory data were collected using a Hawk-eye™ ball tracking system for 36 elite finger spin bowlers competing in international test match cricket between 2006 – 2015. Parameters were calculated describing elements of ball trajectory with the effect of these parameters on bowling average and economy addressed using linear regression. Kinematic analysis suggests the bowlers imparting the most spin adopted a mid-way pelvis orientation angle, a larger pelvis-shoulder separation angle and a shoulder orientation short of side-on at FFC. The orientation of the pelvis at FFC was shown to be the most important technique parameter explaining 43.1% of the variance in ball spin rate.

  • Quantifying Cricket Fast-Bowling Skill
    International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2018, 13, 830-838 https://doi.org/10.1123/ijspp.2017-0169 © 2018 Human Kinetics, Inc. BRIEF REVIEW Quantifying Cricket Fast-Bowling Skill Simon A. Feros, Warren B. Young, and Brendan J. O’Brien Objectives: To evaluate the current evidence regarding the quantification of cricket fast-bowling skill. Methods: Studies that assessed fast-bowling skill (bowling speed and accuracy) were identified from searches in SPORTDiscus (EBSCO) in June 2017. The reference lists of identified papers were also examined for relevant investigations. Results: A total of 16 papers matched the inclusion criteria, and discrepancies in assessment procedures were evident. Differences in test environment, pitch, and cricket ball characteristics; the warm-up prior to test; test familiarization procedures; permitted run-up lengths; bowling spell length; delivery sequence; test instructions; collection of bowling speed data; and collection and reportage of bowling accuracy data were apparent throughout the literature. The reliability and sensitivity of fast-bowling skill measures have rarely been reported across the literature. Only 1 study has attempted to assess the construct validity of its skill measures. Conclusions: There are several discrepancies in how fast-bowling skill has been assessed and subsequently quantified in the literature to date. This is a problem, because comparisons between studies are often difficult. Therefore, a strong rationale exists for the creation of match-specific standardized fast-bowling assessments that offer greater ecological validity while maintaining acceptable reliability and sensitivity of the skill measures. If prospective research can act on the proposed recommendations from this review, then coaches will be able to make more informed decisions surrounding player selection, talent identification, return to skill following injury, and the efficacy of short- and long-term training interventions for fast bowlers.

  • Musculoskeletal Modelling of the Shoulder During Cricket Bowling
    MUSCULOSKELETAL MODELLING OF THE SHOULDER DURING CRICKET BOWLING Lomas Shiva Persad Department of Bioengineering Imperial College London A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for a degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Imperial College London and the Diploma of Imperial College January 2016 2 Abstract Shoulder injuries affect athletes who participate in overhead sports, such as swimming, baseball or basketball. This is due to the high loading, large range of motion and repetitive nature of the sporting task. Impingement has been identified as the most common cause of shoulder pain in overhead athletes. Cricket bowling involves one of the more complex sporting tasks where the arm goes through a large range of motion during circumduction to project the cricket ball at varying degrees of speed and spin where injury surveillance research estimates that over 20% of cricket injuries are related to the upper limb with the glenohumeral joint being the second most injured site. Similar to other overhead athletes, cricket bowlers have a prevalence of shoulder injury and pain with loss of internal rotation. It is hypothesised that this is due to large distraction forces and muscle imbalance at the glenohumeral joint. A second, specific hypothesis is that bowlers who have greater internal rotation after delivering the cricket ball are more likely to suffer from impingement. The motivation for this study is derived from these hypotheses. The aim of this thesis was to test the hypotheses above and investigate potential shoulder injury risk in cricket bowlers. A full body 3D kinematic analysis of fast and slow bowling actions was conducted and a musculoskeletal model used to investigate joint forces and muscle activations at the shoulder.

  • Cricket As Metaphor in Thomas Pynchon's Against The
    65 GRAAT issue # 3 – March 2008 It’s just not cricket: cricket as metaphor in Thomas Pynchon’s Against the Day 1 Peter Vernon Université François Rabelais – Tours This paper makes a very modest proposal indeed; it has as its sole aim to attempt to illuminate one small aspect of the immense novel Against the Day . I shall first, very briefly, suggest some of the analogies and demands made on the reader by Pynchon’s encyclopedic work in which everything connects with everything else; proceed to say why I believe he uses the game of cricket in Against the Day , and then analyze the stereotype of cricket and “The Great Game” of espionage as codes of language and behaviour. Extrapolating from that analysis, I shall make some very hesitant conclusions on Pynchon's vision. What does not concern Thomas Pynchon would be easier to enumerate than what this polymathic author writes about. A reader, certainly this reader, faced with a new book by Pynchon feels like one of the rustics in The Deserted Village looking at the village schoolmaster: “And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew,/That one small head could carry all he knew” (Goldsmith ll. 211-12). Were there time, it would be interesting to develop some kind of theory as to what Pynchon demands of the reader— 66 what kind of contract he establishes with the reader. I cannot do that today, except to say that like later Joyce, he gives a total world view, and he also works by pastiche (the Chums of Chance, the Monty Python Twits, James Bond, “The Thing” etc).
